shoot and paint art challenge: Day 7 of the February Art Challenge

Day 7 of the February Art Challenge

A week of completing a painting each day feels pretty good. Finding a new subject to paint daily is easy as long as I don't care what it is. It's the process of painting that's magical.

We'd love to hear from you whether it's praise or critique. Sometimes it's a simple comment that keeps us going as painters!

Join Us!

Who are we? Ria Hills and Pamela White Murphy. We are 2 artists living in Massachusetts. For inspiration we decided to have a painting challenge based on our photos each month. Of course it didn't stop there. This blog came next and then we decided to invite other artists to join in. The more the merrier!

On the first of every month we will post a new photo. You may use Shoot and Paint's photo or one of your own of a similar subject for your painting.

Paint you own interpretation, change colors, go abstract, add an element . . allow the photo to inspire you. Just stay within the boundaries of the subject and have fun!

To download the photo of the month right click it and save to your hard drive.

P.S. You don't need to be on time to submit for a challenge.

Scroll down for specifics on submitting your painting.
